Half Guard Passing and Dynamic Pins
As always John is one of the best to ever teach
Thank you
Great material
Great Stuff!
Great instructional for experienced and/or inexperienced players. Half Guard Passing is a frequently overlooked part of the game. The best part in my opinion is the Dynamic Pinning part of the instructional - this material will make your control over your opponent MUCH more complete. 10/10 would recommend to anyone.
Great!
Very thorough and great instruction. Pretty much standard from JD!
Huge game changer for me.
As blue belts a friend and I started drilling these and practiced them with gradually increasing levels of resistance. Now as purple belts our professors commonly refer to us as two of the better guard passers at our academy. These are very controlled and dominant ways to systematically pin someone down and pass into a dominant position. You can build a successful guard passing game from this series alone. You will develop ways to force the half guard and find opens to initiate the various passes from there. An amazing series. I can't praise it enough.
game changing
very informative
Excellent!!!!
Probably the best Danaher video I have watched!!! So informative!

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Half Guard Passing and Dynamic Pins: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher
How can you not love the microscopic detail which Professor Danaher brings to these video instructionals. If I were starting my BJJ journey I would advise myself to purchase the whole series and digest them over many sittings...it will take a while, but what of any value doesn't demand effort and time? If I were a black belt (I am) I would study these videos with the same voracity as if it were my first day( I do). No matter who you are are where you are currently on the road to bjj success you will undoubtedly find tremendous value in theses treasure by an absolute master.These are quite simply THE BEST

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Favorite Approach To Passing
Half Guard has become favorite method of guard passing. John's tips to get into half guard work like a charm.
An awesome tutorial
An awesome tutorial. I am an old guy , not very strong an not flexible at all. Fancy passes are not for me , so that i prefer pressure passing. Learning how to pass my opponents, in top half guard, with method, in a so technical way, was an absolute game changer for me. John Danaher is so methodical. I watched it and watched it again and learn new details each time.

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Excellent Introduction to Half Guard Passing and Pinning!
I found a helluva lot of value from this instructional series. I find that I can now consistently force half guard top and know what moves I need to do to pass from there. It has helped me as a jiujitsu practitioner as it also informs how I ought to play half guard bottom.

No matter what belt, these concepts hold throughout your Jiu Jitzu career. Without them you have holes that will never be filled.
